have a separate playlist for all the classic summer songs, so July's playlist consists mainly of new songs that I wanted to check out. Want you back by Haim, Don't matter now by George Ezra, and Lidt ad gangen by danish artist Karl William were especially high on my list of most played songs this month.

A new segment in which I talk about my favourite musical releases of the past three months.

Alt-J

Alt-J has released three singled during this spring, and they also released the full album on June 2nd (Which will without a doubt be one of my favourite albums this year).

The first single 3WW was released on March 6th and it was one of my most listened to song of March! I also really like the other two singles, In cold blood (released on March 29th) and Adeline (released on May 24th), but 3WW was amazing! If you listen to one song from this post, let it be this one.

Paramore

Paramore has been my favourite band ever since I watched the Misery Business video on MTV back when it was first released (I just googled the release date, and realised it will be 10 years ago on June 4th.. Crazy!), and I have grown up along with the band and their ever-changing style. The new album After Laughter introduces a more new wave and synth-pop inspired style, along with a new weird visual universe which fits the music perfectly, and I am loving it!

The album was announced along with the release of the first single Hard Times on April 19th, and the second single Told You So was released on May 3rd. The full album was released on May 12th.

Haim

I have been waiting FOREVER for a new release from Him, and on April 27th it finally happened! Although first single Want You Back of the new album wasn’t technically released until May 3rd, a live version was released on April 27th, and after waiting almost 4 years it was everything I wanting it to be. The second single Right Now was released on May 12th and the full album will be released on July 7th.

Wallows

Just like everybody else on the planet I binged 13 Reasons Why when it was released, and when I stalked all the actors on their social media afterwards (we all do this right? right?) I found out that the actor who plays Clay is in a band called Wallows. During spring they have released two singled - Pleaser, released on April 12th, and Sun Tan which was released on May 22nd. I wasn’t really expecting much, because I honestly couldn’t really imagine Dylan Minnette in a band, but the songs are actually surprisingly good! They have an indie rock sound, which reminds me of bands like The Strokes and The Kooks, both of whom I’m a big fan.

Harry Styles

This guy doesn’t really need introduction does he? I’ve always loved One Direction (no point denying it), but Harry’s style of music is way more up my alley. The self titled album was released on May 12th and I love the entire thing, but my favourite songs are probably still the two singled, Sign of the times which was released on April 7th, and Sweet Creature which was released on May 2nd.

Frank Ocean

Frank Ocean has been releasing some amazing songs this year! Chanel, his first solo release since the Blonde album, had it’s surprise release on March 10th, and a month later he released Biking featuring Jay Z and Tyler, The Creator. I have been listening to both of these a lot, although I prefer the solo version of Biking which was released in May. Another solo track, Lens, was released on April 23rd. I have been listening to all the songs on repeat, and they have been all been added on my monthly playlists.

Sigrid
Sigrid released the single Don’t kill my vibe back in february and has since released a single called Plot Twist, along with an EP. Don’t kill my vibe has been one of my favourite song this spring, and I can’t wait to see her live at Roskilde Festival this year!

Lewis Watson released his newest album midnight in march, and the last single of the album was deep the water. I became completely obsessed with it upon it's release, and it is probably still my favourite song on the album. Give it a listen!

I recently rewatched How I met your mother, and one of the episodes ended with this song. I don’t know how they do it, but the show always makes me all emotional by picking just the right song (I still can’t listen to The Shins’ ‘Simple song’ without tearing up), and that is exactly what they did with Florence and the Machine's Shake it out. Give it a listen!

Like most people here in Denmark I have become obsessed with the Norwegian tv-show SKAM, and have been wanting to go to Oslo ever since I started watching it. Around Christmas time a couple of friends and I found a cheap offer for a one-day-trip by ferry, and a couple of weeks ago we went. I didn't really take a lot of pictures of the actual town (although we had a major photosession on the ferry), but I thought I would share some of the few I have.

It’s been a while, but I’m back (again). The past year has been ridiculously busy, but since I decided to take a break from studying, I’ve got a lot more free time on my hands while I figure out what to do with my life. So, I thought it would be fun to do this blogging thing on a more regular basis! I’ve got a couple of posts already lined up featuring some music, some tv and a bit of traveling, and I’m so excited to get started.

Lewis Watson realeased the single Forever off his new album a couple weeks ago, and it is amazing! I am very much looking forward to March 3, when his new album (along with Ed Sheeran's new album) is released!!

Ed Sheeran relased two new singles a couple weeks ago, and I have not been able to listen to anything else. Castle on the Hill is my current favourite, and if you haven't heard it yet WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LIFE??!
